Icon Setting Description Tungsten The camera balances color assuming incandescent or halogen lighting (typically found in homes). Fluorescent The camera balances color assuming cool or warm fluorescent lighting. ISO speed NOTE The ISO Speed setting does not apply when you are recording video clips. In the Capture menu (see page 35), if you press OK when the ISO Speed option is highlighted, the ISO Speed sub-menu displays. This sub-menu allows you to adjust the sensitivity of the camera to light. Because lower ISO numbers allow slower shutter speeds, use the ISO 100 setting to capture higher quality images that have the least grain or "noise." In contrast, because higher ISO numbers allow faster shutter speeds, use a higher ISO Speed setting when taking either pictures in dark areas without a flash, or pictures of fast moving objects. However, higher ISO speeds produce pictures with more grain or "noise" and, thus, can be of lower quality. NOTE If you are taking a picture in low light conditions without a flash and have set the camera to IS0 100, you may want to use a tripod because of the resulting slow shutter speed. 42 hp photosmart 630 series user's manual
